Back from AnthrCon, (surprise!) and .. well, for the lack of a better term, just the journey to GET there, meeting up with a certain kitty :neybulot:, I was able to hang out. I have to also give many, many many thanks to a good friend  serp for allowing me to stay in his hotel room for the duration (of course I still owe him money)

Nonetheless, it was an amazingly refreshing time. I actually genuinely had fun, even though I partook in very few panels, I met a .. wow, I can't for the life of me remember his name, or if I even knew it, but exposed me (shield your eyes! D:) to golden Dragon Inn, a very, VERY amusing tabletop game, that I should highly recommend you grab if you have roomies or friends. I had an amazingly fun time. the TF Jam was amazing. A lot of my favorite artists were there and we talked 'shop' for the lack of a better term, and many if not all of them (Plus a new comer to the scene!) were all great and fun to chat with. ( I got approximately 3 hugs from  catmonkshiro and 'hung out' a little with them in our hotel room.  Angrboda Was REALLY fun to chat with. (oh so serious! x3)  Comus  LunarKeys  Ripk And a bunch of other friends of theirs were there. The Transfurmation's panel was great fun too. I think almost all the seats were filled at one point (.. 52? 62 people? I miscounted)

Also chatted and talked with some of my other online buds  yifferfox /  badgerben and even met some people I never expected would be there, like a certain toucaroo hipster. *cough  daef cough*It was brief, but yeah. He had sunglasses bigger than his effing face. it was fun! I spoke a little with  MissMab at her tabley thing, snagged two comics called the Confectioners from the RingTail productions thing, and got a quickie sketch of myself as a Confectioner. (I'm made out of Tiramisu! o.o) another highly recommended comic to read. It's fun for all ages as well.

Needless to say, I was able to have a quick heart to heart chat with my kitty pal, and well, it cracked open some old forgotten memories and feelings I haven't had in a decade. Seriously, I literally felt like "old Meph." if anyone knew me long enough, they'd be -very- surprised to see me act like that. And, to be quite frank, it's very refreshing. ^^

I would like to toss a shoutout to many of my good friends who've helped me, and supported me through my dramaticness. 'specially my family, and close friends. I really needed their support through my trying times, and never again should I fall back into the dark pit I was wandering around the edge of for so long.

And for that, I thank you all. *bow* Without your genuine love and support, I might have just fallen to the wayside and become forgotten.
